When Hu Tianhe heard what he said, he twitched the corners of his mouth and chuckled disdainfully.
"Children? I don't think so. They are so calm standing in the court of this foreign country. Don't you find it strange? How did these two children get to Guning Country? Isn't it strange? Eastern Jin Kingdom
We have been enemies of Guning Country since ancient times, don’t you know it, Lord Yu? The official missions from Luoyang City are ostensibly here to suppress bandits, who can guarantee that they are not here to attack Guning Country?"
Hearing what he said, Doudou waved his fist angrily and looked at him with gritted teeth.
"I said, we got lost and went in the wrong direction. Otherwise, how could we be here? If you think the officials stationed outside Luoyang City are suspicious, you should kill them all to save them from the chicken head.
It's annoying to watch at the foot of the mountain."
Listening to these words coming out of Doudou's young mouth, Mr. Yu couldn't help laughing, while Hu Tianhe's face was full of anger and he was gritting his teeth in anger.
He slammed the table and roared,
"No matter what, these two children cannot be let go."
Master Yu raised his eyebrows and said:
"What if I have to let it go?"
Hu Tianhe looked at him with unequivocal cold eyes,
"Then I will go and see the emperor and let him comment on this theory."
"Whatever."
After saying that, Mr. Yu raised his hand and said to Doudou and Xiaoqian: "You guys go, remember to ask for directions before you hit the road next time, and don't get lost again, otherwise I won't be so easy to talk to next time."
When Doudou and Xiaoqian heard that they could leave, they hurriedly saluted:
"Thank you, sir."
After saluting, they left quickly, leaving only Hu Tianhe who was so angry that his beard was glaring, and Mr. Yu who had already left the court and didn't take him seriously at all.
Yu Xingbang always had trouble with him. This time he must keep his word and go to the emperor himself for comment.
Thinking of this, he turned around and left the court, and when he came outside, someone he could trust secretly followed the two children to prevent them from leaving the city, while he rushed to the palace to find the emperor.
The imperial palace of Guning State is at the southernmost end of Ning'an City, some distance away from the Ning'an government office, so Hu Tianhe hurried to the palace alone.
The palaces here are roughly the same as those in other countries, with pavilions, towers and jade buildings, well-proportioned courtyards, and a magnificent palace.
However, Hu Tianhe had no intention of appreciating these. He had already appreciated enough of them when he was in the palace.
He couldn't wait to go to the emperor and report to Yu Xingbang. It was best to seize this opportunity to take his government office and replace it himself. This was his dream all along.
Along the way, he was thinking about what he would say to the emperor when he saw him later, so he looked a little focused.
The emperor of Guning Kingdom was about fifty years old, with bright eyes and high energy. He looked much younger than his actual age.
He was reading something in the royal study at the moment. After his father-in-law informed him, he couldn't help but frown.
He didn't have much fondness for this Hu Tianhe. He was too competitive. If he hadn't been thinking of his ancestors to be loyal to the imperial court, he would have been driven back to his hometown to farm the land.
But he still waved his hand to signal his father-in-law to inform him to come in.
After getting the emperor's permission, Hu Tianhe hurriedly entered the room. After entering the room, he bowed directly and saluted.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."
"Say it."
He whispered while flipping through the books in his hands.
He had long been accustomed to the emperor's indifferent attitude, so he continued:
"Yu Xingbang captured two secret agents of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but for some unknown reason, he let them go."
Hearing the words "Eastern Jin Kingdom", the emperor's expression instantly became angry. He closed the book in his hand heavily and looked at him with a solemn eyebrow.
"Why did he let it go?"
"He let the two men go on the grounds that they were too young to be afraid. However, just in case, I ordered someone to follow them secretly to prevent them from leaving the city. I was eager to inform the emperor and ask him to make a decision.
.”
The emperor looked at Hu Tianhe's arrogant expression and was a little puzzled.
"Yu Xingbang is not a dull person. Since he said those two are still young and not worthy of fear, he must have his reasons."
Seeing that the emperor believed Yu Xingbang's words, Hu Tianhe hurriedly continued:
"Your Majesty, although those two people are children, they speak in a clear-cut manner. Even when they go to court, they don't even show a trace of fear. Is this what normal ordinary children do?
The most important thing is that they came from the Eastern Jin Dynasty on foot. I think this is impossible. They must be lying. There must be someone in this city who is working with them. Please let your Majesty take a closer look."
The emperor was still pondering. Yu Xingbang was the prefect of Ning'an City appointed by him. He, the emperor, knew his character better than anyone else. He believed that he must have his own sense of proportion in doing things.
While he was hesitating, Hu Tianhe added again:
"Your Majesty, please don't forget that if it hadn't been for the Xizuo from the Eastern Jin Dynasty who came to Guning and took the eldest prince and the little princess away, why would the emperor still be lonely at this age, and why would the queen live in worry and anxiety all day long?
"
When this matter was mentioned, the emperor's expression suddenly became deserted.
He suddenly remembered the incident more than ten years ago. At that time, he mistakenly believed the words of a greedy minister, held peace talks with the people from the Eastern Jin Dynasty with a friendly attitude, and went out hunting with the people from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but he did not want to
Therefore, his two sons and daughters were drugged and taken away from the hunting ground. From then on, there was no news. Someone once told him that he saw his daughter during the battle with the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Later, he was killed by the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The man was killed and not even his body was found.
The more he thought about this, the uglier his face became and his expression became more nervous.
"Master Hu, go and bring those two people here so that I can examine them carefully."
For some reason, he wanted to take revenge on two people from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They killed his two children back then, leaving him alone and helpless to this day. His beloved queen was also worried and sick all day long.
He had wanted to take revenge for a long time. If the battle six years ago had not severely damaged Guning's vitality, he would have led his army to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty himself.
Hu Tianhe received the order and hurriedly ran to order the arrest.
With the emperor's oral instructions, what else does he have to fear?
Doudou and Xiaoqian walked around the city several times and asked about several carriages. In the end, neither of them were willing to go to the Eastern Jin Kingdom. In the end, they agreed to buy a carriage and drive it themselves.
But the horse, saddle and cart cost thirty taels of silver. It was difficult to carry around the seventy taels of silver in my hand.
"Xiaoqian, what should we do? Otherwise, we should walk back. If we can't go back to Jitou Mountain."
Xiaoqian shook her head hurriedly, "No, it would be embarrassing for us to walk back like this. Besides, I have no strength anymore. If I pawn this now, I can buy a carriage."
"no."
Doudou wanted to step forward and grab the purse in her hand, but she dodged directly.
"We have no other choice. These things are all external possessions. What's the use of keeping them?"
"That's not okay. I saw that Uncle Liu Jin also had a purse like this. He used it as a treasure, but you want to pawn it. You really don't know how to cherish it."
Hearing what he said, Xiaoqian curled her lips and said,
"Let's take a look. You also said that Uncle Liu Jin has the same thing. That means this thing is not valuable. Maybe the pawn shop doesn't want it. Let's ask first and discuss it later."
After saying that, she took his hand and prepared to go to the pawn shop.
At this time, several burly people stood in front of them, blocking their way.
When Doudou and Xiaoqian saw this, they started to fight with these people.
Although they had some skills, their strength was still small, and they were quickly defeated and captured firmly by these people.
On Jitou Mountain here, Su Muer is planning to lead her brothers to attack the mountain tomorrow, so she is discussing something with Uncle Wu.
Suddenly, Liu Jin ran in panting,
"An'an, it's not good. The person who went to deliver the message chased them on the road for a whole day, but did not find Doudou and Xiaoqian. Moreover, he asked along the way and found no trace of them."
Hearing this, Su Muer's expression instantly became tense.
"They are not on their way to the capital? Then where did they go? Nothing will happen, right?"
Seeing her nervous look, Uncle Wu hurriedly comforted her.
"That kid Doudou is smart, and Xiaoqian is also sensible. Nothing will happen to them. They must have settled in some city, or rented a carriage to travel. Don't worry, the boss."
"Impossible, they don't have enough money to rent a carriage. Something must have happened to them."
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a pain in her chest, followed by a wave of dizziness.
Ah Qiu, who was standing aside, saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
"Miss, you can't fall down at this time."
Su Mu'er waved her hand to signal her not to support her. She was afraid that her brothers would be worried if they saw her.
"Liu Jin, I want to find Doudou myself. You lead the brothers to guard the mountain. The green corn on the back mountain can be cooked and eaten, and there is no need to keep the poultry in the chicken coop. No matter whether you find it or not, I will give it to you in three days at most.
They will return, and when the time comes, we will go down the mountain to fight."
Although Liu Jin felt that it was dangerous for her to do this, he understood her mood very well and nodded in agreement.
But she didn't know that Doudou had already arrived at the palace of the enemy's Guning Kingdom at this time.
The emperor looked at the two children up and down with a puzzled look on his face.
"Master Hu, do you think the two of them know Kung Fu?"
Master Hu nodded excitedly, "Yes, they just fought with four or five officials, and they were able to respond a few times, so they must be careful."
Doudou frowned and looked at Hu Tianhe, and couldn't help but said angrily:
"You look wretched, your actions are despicable, and your words are baseless. Why do we know kung fu? There are ordinary people who know kung fu. Are they all meticulous?"
Doudou's words completely angered Hu Tianhe.
He waved his fist and looked at him, "You bastard, I will punish you soon. It will be up to you whether you will or not. You people in the Eastern Jin Kingdom are all evil people."
